Nicholasville Historic District

Description

The historic core of the city, this district consists of a concentrated group of nine teenth and early twentieth century commercial, governmental, residential and religious structures. Of the total 137 properties within the district boundaries, less than seven percent are post-1930 buildings contributing to the overall character of the district and seven percent are intrusions. The district includes the principal intersection of streets at the county courthouse, three blocks of commercial structures on Main Street, and four blocks of residential, commercial and religious buildings on Maple Street. Most structures in the district are of brick construction; cast metal was used extensively for decoration and for storefronts; most of the structures are two stories hioh; the Italianate style and its derivatives dominate the commercial structures, while most of the domestic structures are eclectic and all the churches are classical.

Significance

The Nicholasville Historic District is a well-preserved historic core of one of Kentucky's oldest county seats. It maintains a strong link to the past through its essentially unaltered town plan (a simple grid of streets with the courthouse on one of the quadrants of the principal intersection) as well as through its numerous good examples of nine teenth and early twentieth century architecture. In addition to architecture and community planning, the district has significance in the areas of commerce (the commercial center of the city since its founding); government (the county courthouse); and religion (four of the city's oldest congregations). Downtown Main Street is still the primary commercial center in the county, although recent shopping centers have been constructed on the north and south sides of town.

The boundaries of the Nicholasville Historic District were drawn to include the three blocks of 19th century commercial buildings on Main Street with the courthouse in the center and Baptist Church on the south plus the Walker Hotel and County Jail in the fourth block, but omitting the east side of the 200 North Main block which was razed and redeveloped within the past five years. The remaining 19th century commercial buildings on both sides of East Maple were included, the Presbyterian Church property on the north side of First Street, the Methodist Church on West Maple, and the stylish late 19th century residences up the hill on West Maple. The irregular outline of the district reflects the property lines. Three town sites, nominated individually (JS-N-4, JS-N-31, and JS-N-32), abutt the historic district. Outside these boundaries on all sides are structures of less architectural or historical significance, or later con struction dates.

The Historic District boundary commences 50 feet south of the intersection of North Majm and Oak Street; thence south on North Main to 50 feet south ofjâjnut Street thence east to rear of property line of 120 North Main, thence south along rear lines of property on east side of 100 block North Main to rear of property facing East Maple, thence east along rear of 111-113 East Maple and south along side of same to center of East Maple Street; thence east on East Maple to 30 feet east of York Street, thence south along side property line of 200 East Maple and west along rear property lines of 200 East Maple and south side 100 block East Maple to rear of property line of east side 100 block South Main; thence south with rear property lines on east side 100 block South Main and 200 South Main; thence west with side lines of 200 South Main and 201 South Main, thence northwest rear lines of 201 South Main and west side 100 block South Main to rear property line 102 West Maple; thence west along rear lines of 100, 200, and 300 blocks West Maple to Third Street; thence north on Third Street to rear property line of 311 West Maple, thence east with rear lines on north side of 300 block West Maple to Second Street; thence north on Second Street to north side line of 101 North First, thence with said line east to First Street; thence north on First Street to rear property line of 103-113 Court Row and with said line to rear line of 103 North Main; thence north along rear line on west side of 100 and 200 blocks North Main (some in 200 block extending through to Second Street) to the north side line of 227 North Main, thence east with said line to the beginning, containing about 15 acres.
